''Stories From Heathen Mythology And Greek History: For The Use Of Christian Children'' is a book written by John Mason Neale and published in 1847. The book contains a collection of stories from Greek mythology and history, with the aim of teaching Christian children about the virtues and vices of the ancient world. The stories cover a wide range of topics, including the Trojan War, the adventures of Odysseus, the life of Alexander the Great, and the myths of gods and goddesses such as Zeus, Apollo, and Athena. Neale presents these stories in a way that emphasizes their moral lessons, and he frequently draws parallels between the ancient world and the Christian faith. The book is intended to be both educational and entertaining, and it is written in a style that is accessible to young readers. Overall, ''Stories From Heathen Mythology And Greek History'' is a fascinating exploration of the ancient world and its relevance to modern Christian values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
